Even I though he is legally permitted to sell poi b ill not I do so unless he is convinced that it is in the public interest, and the I facts in each case are weighed individually. If he is satisfied that you live in the neighborhood, that you want the poison for a legitimate purpose that coul be satisfied by a less dangerous substance, that you are fully aware of its lethal character, § and that you know how to use it properly and safely, he will get out his Poison Register. In this book he will enter the date, the hour, your name : and address, the name and amount of the poison purchased, and a state- ¢ ment of the purpose for which it is to be used. He will then ask you to E sign the register to verify the information he has recorded. Then, and only then, will he sell you the poisonous substance you desire. 3 Thus does the pharmacist surround the sale of poisons with every I possible precaution against misuse due to ignorance. He makes sure that you are under no misapprehension as to the dangers in their use before he sells them.--Reprinted from a copyrighted published by Parke, Davis & Campany. = THE RUSSELL DRUG CO PHONE 47 (Formerly Byers') LETTERS TO Port Credit, Ont., Jan. 16, 1951] The Editor, The Journal Dear Sir: 5 Will you accept my sincere thanks for the complimentary copy of the Journal, sent to me each week while in hospital and for the good wishes so charmingly ex- pressed on your tag.

DANCE AIDS MATHEWS FUND Flocking from all parts of the town and district in such numbers as to overflow the popular and commodious Pig and Whistle Inn, area residents last Wednesday night assured the success of the Mrs. Mathews Children's Fund benefit dance by adding a total of $299 to the fund's coffers. This substantial sum boosted the fund total to date to $1,502:43, treas- urer Bill Scade announced yester- ay. 'When Chris Petroff offered the facilities of his hostelry to the fund committee, it is doubtful that he anticipated the terrific patronage the event would at- tract.. Scores were unable to gain admittance, while inside, a capac- ity crowd thoroughly enjoyed a gala. variety floor show and the dancing to the rhythms of George Vassil's topflight band. Reeve 'Howard Litchfield emeceed the program, which was attended by Mayor J. R. Black and other town officials. Firmly established when euchre at the Legion hall raised $299.45 within a week of Ben Mathews tragic death, the fund has climbed steadily. A fine var- iety show at the Century theatre added another $370, while public subscription has totalled $601.60. Expenses have: been kept down to a remarkably low $67.62, treas- urer Scade told the Journal. "But we have a real drive still ahead before we reach our $5,000 objective," he declared.
